Let's get new waves off. What about Tuesday? Oh my gosh. I know it's Tuesday Tuesday like evening.
It's already like the night. You're already getting ready to go into Wednesday. Oh, it's Tuesday morning for me. So it's like the end of Monday night for you.
It's Monday morning for me. It's 1229 or? Okay, Lewis rocked out in Adelaide, Australia. I'm rocked out and I'm feeling a little knocked out now.
Now that you've popped up on the screen and your dulce at tones are putting me to sleep, I'm like, oh, you're in my headphones talking. Do you have that too? If I start talking to you when you're tired, it just relaxes you more and you're like, maybe I should try to play my song before I... Let's do that before you fall asleep.
Okay. This might be a little rough. Many music Tuesday. This might be a little rough.
I'm going to play another song that I recorded with Dinosaur Junior. It's from that same record. What is the name of the record? Give a glimpse of what you're not.
Is it for me? Is it a love song for me? Kinda, yeah. You don't have to answer that.
I would say yes it is. This one's like, this is like the... Is this about me? Yeah, I don't know.
You can figure that out. Let's discuss it after I... Love is Adele. After I stumble my way through this, this could be like...
I'm just... If I make a mistake, y'all, Adele, everybody, I'm just going to plow through it. Here we go. Let it fall on you.
Let it pin you down. Until you tell the truth. Yeah. No matter what they say, there's no amount of water pain.
So if you ask for it, don't ask for it again. And let it fall on you. Let it pin you down. Until you tell the truth.
Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Let's...
Well, I wish for what I did. Ooh, if that's once I had a taste on it, I'd lose it all to get it. That's a choice that I had made of the view of life above the law of Islam. That is the best that's left far on me.
Let it pin you down. Until you tell the truth. It's here. It comes the age where forgiveness is a sin.
If you're still. So fall off range. It only pours unless you will. Look down for a gated.
Look on that knife. What you saw. Love is the law. Love is the law.
Let it fall on you. Let it pin you down. Until you tell the truth. That's not about me.
That's about... It's about getting together with you. It's not like... You know.
It's just like about a life-changing song. It's like you're just changing your life. Because love is the law. So when we when we when we was in love, when we decided, I don't know when the love happened, it was like, okay, time to move on.
Time to go with the love. Love is the law. Love is the law. You want to find out?
I don't know why I didn't call the song love is the law. I just called it love is. I'm like, why did I do that? I do that often.
It's like I'll write a song and there's an obvious title and I won't use the obvious title. I had that song. I called it state of mind and it was obviously meant to be called calves of champions. I'm okay with that one being called state of mind because I don't like the word calves.
That's one of your buttons. That's one of my buttons. Like, why are you talking about that body part in a song? I don't know.
I mean, I love you dear, but I just highlighting the calf. You're like, uh, it's not for me. It's not it's not it's not my company. That's a pretty good song.
I like that one. I tell the story about what I'll do. Oh, I know. I know you like it.
You're welcome to like it. It's your song. I'm going to play it for you. No, not right now.
I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good.
Not now. My name means this is like this is like the last event of my day. I actually pulled that off. I actually played that song without without fucking it up a little wobbly on.
You did. You paid it. You paid it. You paid it.
I was a little wobbly. My my my my my pitch was a little wobbly. But it's okay. It's it is raw impressions, you know, so yeah.
It's all right. You're doing your test. Okay, I want to ask you this. There's there's a line in the song.
It's like, um, number one. I know what they say. There's no reward to pain. I'm like, is there a reward for pain?
I mean, I mean, there is, I suppose reward for pain. I was trying to say that there was no reward for like emotional pain after a point. You know what I mean? It's not like it's not like working out.
Like if you work out or you have to learn something or if you're like, you know, there is pain and there is reward for that pain. If you're working out or you want to like, but I'm and it is. I was just saying and I'm so every time I sing that line, I'm like, is that like wrong or? Well, you know, it's funny.
I never really thought about that before, but now that we're talking about it and I'm thinking about that line, it's kind of, um, you know, there are some people who really want to almost feel rewarded for their pain. You know what I mean? Like they almost want like a, like a trauma medal. Does that make sense?
It does because we're there. Look at this. Look at my pain, you know, and I really want you to give me my medal for just living. And I think that's maybe what you're talking about is like, there's just, there's no reward for it.
It's like, it's just, I was in a personal way. I was thinking that like, yeah, by going through difficult times with someone in a relationship, you know, that you sort of feel like by enduring something, enduring a pain, there is there will be a reward for that that. It may be at some point, maybe at some point things change. Maybe at some point the person realizes that you're in pain and says and gives you this heartfelt sorry and there's sort of this, this transition that happens, this transformation that occurs.
And that's what I'm referring to in the song. So you know what? I'm okay. I'm glad we're talking about it because I was, I love playing that song because I really like, I like, I like, I like, I like it too.
I felt really dinosaur junior played that for a while. That was, that was my song that we played. There's always like one, one original song of mine in a set. And so that was like, there was a season when that was the song that we played and I really enjoyed it.
And, and, and it really, in J played it really well. I mean, it's like, yeah, I could see that being really quiet. It was a really good, there's a really good lead part in it and J would really dig into the lead and, and it felt great. And, but now I played it, I started playing at acoustic again.
And when I hit that line, like, there's no reward for pain. And it's, this is dumb, but I was, I was on Instagram and I'm, I don't know, I'm following some manly men on Instagram right now. I'm probably going to unfollow them pretty soon, but some pretty manly, you manly guys and they're like, there you must go through pain. And like I was watching this guy and he's like, you know, I realized early on that I, I couldn't do her pain and I knew that by enduring the pain, I could overcome my limitations.
And you know, it's not about talent. It's about the ability to survive pain and to become a better, become a better, which is all I got true. I mean, it's like, the guys like, yeah, yeah, I was going to say, I think that line could be taken multiple ways. Like if you're talking about it like that, I think they're absolutely is a reward for pain.
Like, for example, I've been working out on the treadmill. It's very painful, but is there a, is there a reward that I'm getting like stronger and I'm feeling better and it's helping me with some of my mental health issues? Absolutely. You know, so there's lots and lots of instances where there's rewards for pain.
Like maybe you have to really crunch for an exam, you know, and it's, it's, it's painful in all sorts of ways, you know, like you're up late at night and you're really worried about it. And, you know, but then the next day you get up, you ace it, there's a reward. So I think there's lots of ways to see that line. And then, you know, so I think there can be a reward for pain.
I think that they're absolutely can be. I think if we're talking about like what I said earlier, where it's more of like a bitter kind of resentment about like more of like an attention thing, like look at my sadness, I want to be rewarded for my sadness. Then I think I don't really know if that's truly a reward. You know what I mean?
That's just you're just your shitty attitude. But like I think, but I think that there's lots of rewards for pain. So, but maybe not in a relationship so much. Well, I don't know.
I mean, you know, we've had some painful fights and the reward is that we come out of it understanding each other better and I think communicating better. I was just feeling better about that line and now I'm thinking, wow, I don't know. Maybe, you know, sometimes there's no reward for pain. You could change.
You could add sometimes. And in this particular case, the pain in this very specific instance, there was no reward for the pain. Okay. Well, can you say there is a reward for pain?
Then can you can we switch it up? How can we say there is a reward for pain? Well, that just feels good. No man.
No, they say there's no reward for pain. It just feels good. It feels good. And you know what?
It's for me. I wrote that song for me. I know what I'm talking about and I'm right in that case. But I do feel like sometimes I'm like, oh, the song has to speak to it.
You know, anyway, it has to speak to everyone. But I think in that case, you know, no, yeah, it's yeah. I think it's okay. You can leave it in there.
You could leave it. Just like you can leave your calves, your calves, your son. I'll allow it.
